Isn't XInternAtoms one of the things that is an essential
round-trip-killing lifesaver for Xlib, but would just be a trivial
wrapper for XCB ?

That is, the one-function-call nature of XInternAtoms isn't the
significant bit, but rather its one-round-trip nature. But doesn't
XCB's atom code allow the round-trip latency to be completely hidden
even with lots of individual function calls/requests to intern each
atom?

The wrapper would obviously be useful for aiding porting of code of
course.
